If one to go through carefully the new list for the recent international postage rate hike, one will notice that Postcard is being left out. I am not sure if this was done by purpose or it was overlooked by the authority.
Before the international postal tariff hike, there was a category international postcard (it appeared in Pos Malaysia website before 15 May 2013). Postcard to any foreign destination was fixed at 50s. Now, one could not find the international postcard rate anymore in Pos Malaysia website or even in the printed brochure to inform the tariff hike.
I was told that post staff nationwide is still using the old international postcard rate (50s) as they could not find any international postcard rate in the revised brochure or memo sent to post offices by Pos Malaysia.
Anyway, judging from the hike in all the categories (listed in Pos Malaysia website and printed brochure), I believe it is very unlike that the international postcard rate would remain as old rate 50s. I feel that Pos Malaysia has overlooked this category, and that I think there would most likely a revised international postcard rate coming out very soon.
To be honest, the rate 50s is too cheap for a postcard to be sent to any foreign destination. The international postcard rate needs more urgent revision.
